18. Chapter Eighteen #2
I slump against Leo as all the strength in me disappears. He holds me. Just holds me.
Leo takes me to a hotel since his house was badly burned. The moment we step foot into the hotel room, I turn to him.
“Kiss me,” I whisper.
“Emma…”
“I need to forget. For just a moment. I need to forget.”
Leo cups my face and places a tender kiss on my lips. It only takes a few seconds for the kiss to become heated. I grab his shirt, pulling him in closer.
“I need you,” I whimper against his lips. “Right now.”
“Ok, baby. Whatever you need.”
I tear at his shirt so fast the buttons go flying. My hands roam over his strong chest. Leo lets out a low groan before kissing me again.
His hands shove my bloodstained dress up and rip my panties down. I kick them away. Right now, I need Leo more than I’ve ever needed anything. Nothing else matters.
I unzip his pants and pull his cock out. Leo groans deeply. I love knowing I have this power over him. Some choice in my life.
Leo picks me up in his arms and presses me against the wall.
“Your arm,” I gasp.
“I can ignore the pain,” he grits out. “I need you too. Fuck, baby.”
I wrap my legs around his waist. His cock is right next to my entrance. Our eyes lock right before he thrusts into me.
My inner walls clamp down on his cock, making both of us choke on our gasps.
“Fuck, you feel so good around my cock.” He thrusts into me with deliberate control. I cling to his back, needing him closer. Always needing him.
“Leo,” I moan, dropping my head back against the wall.
“Emma. Baby. God. Fuck.”
He pulls us onto the floor. I remain astride him and grind my hips down, filling him enter me deeper.
Leo brings our lips together in a hot, passionate kiss. It’s a little sloppy but that’s what makes it perfect.
I ride him with wild abandon. No more being shy. No more holding back. I’ve wanted freedom since I left my mother and I have finally found it with Leo.
He groans, pulling me down harder onto him. “Fuck, baby. You’re perfect. So fucking perfect.” Leo grips my backside and moves me back and forth. Every action makes his cock sink deeper into me. I can feel him everywhere along my inner walls.
“Leo,” I gasp. I bury my face into his neck, breathing in his scent. Cinnamon and pine. I could inhale his scent forever.
“You need this, baby? Tell me how much.”
“Like I need to breathe. I need this so badly.”
“Fuck,” he murmurs. In one smooth motion, he rolls me onto my back and thrusts into me harder. Leo sits up on his knees and places my ankles on his shoulders. In this new position, he can sink harder into me.
I lay there, letting him have his way with me. I need to get lost in this moment. Nothing else matters but me and Leo.
The sound of our bodies slapping together makes me blush but it also makes me moan.
“Leo!”
He grits his teeth, fucking me harder. Every thrust is deliberate. Frantic and yet controlled. “You needed this? You needed my cock inside of you?”
“Yes,” I moan.
“You dirty girl. You’re mine, Emma. My dirty girl.”
“Please. Please. I need you.”
“You have me. Pull your dress down. I need to see your breasts.”
I shove my straps down, exposing my bare breasts to him. With his eyes on me, I wrap my hands around my breasts. When my fingers flick over my nipples, I can’t hold back another moan.
“Fuck,” he breathes out. His thrusts are harder. I think I might die from it all. I think it’s the only thing keeping me alive right now.
Leo fucks me right here on the floor of the hotel room. It’s dirty and wild and yet perfect at the same time.
“Come for me,” he pants. “God, Emma. Come for me.”
His words know exactly how to light me on fire. My body responds to his command and my orgasm washes over me. I moan his name, shuddering.
Leo thrusts into me once more before coming. He slows his thrusts down until he leans over me, burying his face into my neck. We both catch our breath.
“Do you really love me?” I whisper.
He lifts his gaze to look into my eyes. “I meant what I said. I love you, Emma.”
I gasp. “I love you too. I’ve been wanting to tell you for a while.”
“It’s a miracle you can love me after everything I did to you.”
“You saved my life so many times. I forgave you a long time ago. I know you’re not a bad man, Leo.”
“But I am. I just happen to have a soft spot for you.” He kisses my lips before moving down to my breasts. I arch into him when he captures my nipple in his lips. “I am possessive. I would kill anyone who tried to take you from me.”
“Will we be safe? Matteo is still out there.”
“Don’t worry about him.” Leo kisses back up to my lips. “No one will take you from me. Not your mother or your father. Not Matteo. No one.”
“I want to stay with you forever. I know that now. I don’t need my own freedom.”
For just a second, Leo frowns before he smiles, planting a soft kiss on my lips. I don’t understand it but he slips out of me before I can ask him.
“Leo?” I whisper.
His back is to me. “Yes?”
“What are you thinking?”
“I’m…” He shakes his head and gives me a soft, charming smile. “Nothing, baby. Nothing you need to worry about right now. Let’s just be together. I have to buy us a new house. I have to find Matteo. I have a lot on my mind.”
“Can I help?”
“You’ve been through enough. Just relax.” Leo gets up and walks away, keeping his back to me. I can feel the shift in the room. The temperature drop.
Why is he acting cold all of a sudden?
I don’t know but I know in my gut that it can’t be good.
